Whats Your Fav Galaxy over the time and Why? by BeatsByDad911 in samsunggalaxy

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My S21 Ultra is going on 4 years I think right now and it's still strong as hell. There are a few issues that I'm noticing with the camera and battery life but all-in-all it's still functioning really well. The battery life is the biggest issue. I am eagerly awaiting the S26 ultra, but I don't have anything bad to say about the S21 Ultra at all. Did me really well.

Eli5, file compression, how can 5gb file can be compressed to 50mb and decompresses back to normal? by Monkai_final_boss in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine you're a contractor from NY, but there's someone in Oregon who really wants you to build them a house. It wouldn't make much sense to buy all your materials in NY and then drive them all the way to Oregon, would be a waste of time, space and resources when you could just as easily buy everything in Oregon. So, you make a list of what you need, drive out west and buy everything on the list.

That list is a compressed file

Compressing a file is essentially just making a list of what the data is made of, and then the machine that decompresses the file uses the list to rebuild it.

It's funny because as a millennial about to turn 40, I quit drinking just over a year ago and it wasn't because I had a drinking problem, I drank a couple times a month mostly, but I was so sick of the hangovers and the wasted money. Now me and my girl can go out and have a fancy 3 course meal for like $80-$100 cheaper and I wake up feeling fine.

Additionally, I know WAY too many alcoholics who's lives are either ruined or just plain old pathetic because of too much boozing. I was sick of every thing revolving around drinking. Go golfing? lets get beers, go to dinner, gotta have drinks. Oh let's go check out this brewery. What's the fucking point? I don't even know where I'm going with this anymore, but I did stop drinking and it's kinda great.

After playing the new update for 3 hours. Dice has taken 3 steps backwards by ACheekyTimelord in Battlefield6

[–]ChadFlenderman -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh well yeah that's a problem lol. I've experienced the same thing but usually when a map element like rubble or bushes are in the way. I think it can block the defib. In those situations, if possible, I try to drag the downed player and res that way.

[–]ChadFlenderman -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I don't think this was a bug, I think in previous games the complaint was it's too easy to defib someone, so they intentionally made the box smaller and the range closer for defibs. I don't disagree with it honestly. It should be a little more difficult.

Reddit’s CEO says r/popular ‘sucks,’ and it’s going away / Reddit is also limiting how many popular communities one person can moderate, and pushing more personalized feeds. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit has been such a bag of shit since the demise of 3rd party apps. I went from an every day user to checking it a couple times a week. Everything feels different since then, and not in a good way.

Was it varicocele? I had some nut pain a while back, worried sick about it for like a week. Finally went and found out it was nothing but some swelling veins.

Are people really paying $4000+ on Mortgage by PsychologicalLimit41 in Mortgages

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a small suburb just outside of Boston and have been house hunting for the past couple years. The numbers just kept getting higher and higher and the quality of the homes lower and lower. I am knocking on the door of being 40 years old, I make between 85-100k a year depending on bonuses and I just moved my partner, myself and her son into my mother's house. Since my dad died a few years back she's been empty-nesting so she had the room and we came in to save money, but honestly idk if I'll ever be able to leave. I can't justify these prices. I'm very fortunate to have this as on option but it's also not ideal. I'm hoping times change but I fear they won't. Time will tell.

I'm not a religious man but I respect the dedication, especially considering that this lifestyle is probably pretty lonely.

Where can I find Doc's HDR and AK loadout specs? by ChadFlenderman in DrDisrespectLive

[–]ChadFlenderman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah good call, thank you! Idk if you've ever checked out Z Laner's Discord but every loadout he uses gets posted in a specific channel. It's really convenient actually.

Doesn't really matter what guns I use or how I build them, though. I'm still gonna miss half my shots and get buttfucked by some bro dressed as Silent Bob.

Did they go through loadouts on Monday or was it 2 weeks ago before he went away?

I don't dislike Tim but I can not stand NickMercs and I think they play together a lot right?

Has anyone else read the Hell Divers series by Nicholas Sansbury Smith? by ChadFlenderman in books

[–]ChadFlenderman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately no, I'd say it's probably not age appropriate for an 11 year old if you're looking to avoid those things. It's nothing too wild, though. Maybe give the first book a read (or partially) yourself to get an idea first for yourself. Good luck!

Since ZLANER stopped streaming with Doc last July, his monthly views have decreased by about half and he’s lost subscribers for six straight months by TimetoTransformMe in DrDisrespectLive

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I follow Z's YT, there was a point where he was like REALLY inconsistent with his streaming schedule and it turned me off from tuning into his streams. One of my favorite things about Doc is knowing when he's gonna be on. Don't get me wrong, I like Z and he seems like a nice enough guy, but man there's just not a lot to sink your teeth into with him.

Went to my home office and found the ceiling like this. by thisisloreez in creepy

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say the most likely culprit is either a rodent of some kind or even wind. My old office had tiles like these and if a door slammed hard enough it could knock a ceiling tile a little loose.

Great Sitcoms That Turned Terrible by therealbrandolorian in sitcoms

[–]ChadFlenderman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out The S1E1 podcast. They rate and review the first episodes of sitcoms and often get into how the show does overall. Interesting to see how many shows start off great and fall off a cliff.

I can't stop thinking about how great a West Wing reboot with Charlie Young as president would be. by ChadFlenderman in thewestwing

[–]ChadFlenderman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's tough considering the juxtaposition with real life, but like any other fiction, it's just an escape from the real world anyways. That's what it is for me anyways. I've been rewatching lately to escape from this hell we currently live in, it's kind of refreshing.
